Details

This book is about the discovery of the coast of New South Wales between the Shoalhaven River and Batemans Bay. The exploration of adjacent stretches of coast has also been included where this will provide a more comprehensive story. About a dozen men have left more or less detailed accounts of their work along the south coast and these are discussed in chronological order. Many others, such as sealers, whalers, and cedar cutters, whose names are lost also made valuable contributions.
